Expert Care In Richmond, VA

The ankle is made up of many bones, ligaments, muscles, joints, tendons and nerves. The complex structures within the ankles are designed to carry the body’s weight and perform a wide range of activities. Strengthening the leg muscles of the calf and shin will increase the stability of the ankle joint and help reduce ankle and foot pain. Foot and ankle pain is a common occurrence but it is important to determine the true cause of the pain to initiate the appropriate treatment.
